WS-6-MINI

Good afternoon/morning,

I have recently purchased WS-6-MINI and I am trying to configure all the switches I've purchased to have the same port layout, however port 1 does not have any power options, and port 2 has power options but they are grayed out.

What is the reasoning behind this? I have just moved the layout back to front so I'm now using port 5 & 6 but would like to know why this is for future reference.

Regards,
Ocean

Port 1 only accepts input power to run the mini. On the other ports if a link is already active on a POE port for safety reasons it is not optional to turn on POE on a port until after the link is down/removed from the port.
